I've loved DOOM since the original, even though I've always sucked at it. The whole thing is cool. Hell, Mars, advanced weapons...what's not to love about this kill-fest? You get to run around with a weapon called the BFG9000, for Pete's sake!

I don't own an Xbox One yet, and I am far from purchasing one anytime soon. Mostly because I am quite happy with my Nintendo WiiU currently.

When XB1 came out, it was instantly critisized because of it's 500 GB HD.

Not a huge guy, but I could stand to lose a few pounds. I have a membership to Planet Fitness, I go for walks randomly, etc. Nothing I would call a hardcore workout regimen though, which at some I hope to do.

As a supplement to hopefully losing a few pounds, I decided to pickup WiiFitU.

There is one level in this game that is just insanely frustrating, and there are no second chances.

When this game came out, my mind was blown. The 3D polygon graphics from the Super FX chip were things to marvel at.

However, if you show this game to anyone today, it's considered extremely dates and looks likes crap. While I do agree that the graphics are nothing exciting today, at one point in 1993, they were top of the line.

I consider this game to be the low point of a once great series. It took away all of the survival horror aspect of the game and traded it for a more action based shooter, like the populate Call of Duty series.

When I purchased this game, I was the only one of my friends who did. Everyone of my friends could smell how bad the game was, but I gave it the benefit of the doubt.

Gaming has impacted my decisions in life, and even my career.

There was one Christmas morning that little did I know, would define the rest of my gaming life and will never be topped.

When I saw Skylanders and Disney Infinity, I thought it was kind of childish. You buy the video game, then you have to buy toys to play the game! Well, they've got me there, that's pretty genius. Release one game and a bunch of toys to go with it, not a bad plan. I chose to ignore it.

Lot's of Nintendo games like Mario Kart 8, Super Mario 3D World, and pretty much anything classic. Last night, I just had the feeling I wanted to sit horribly close to a tube TV, grab my old players guide, and just play through the original Legend of Zelda. You know what? This game still hold's up REALLY well.

Games are taking over everything, from TV to movies. All the commercials are for videos games, or are based on something from a video game. They're everywhere!

If you're playing video games, that's great. If you're taking these games past the point of the game into something completely new, are you still playing or are you creating something else?

Kind of.

G4, in it's final couple years, really did start to suck with a bunch of shows that no one really cared about. However, there was one show that told the history of video games, computers, etc. A show titled "G4 Icons."

From coins to action figures, collecting things can become quite addictive. Old school video games have really started to rake in money when it comes to 'retro collecting.' Some people can amass a huge amount of game that could equal to a small fortune. Who knows, maybe you have some of these games. Let's start with the Super Nintendo.

Digital cameras back then were big, clunky and didn't really take the best pictures.

Today, you can get a decent digital camera for about $100 (or just use your smart phone).

As a kid though, you would take pics with your disposable camera and have to wait what seemed like forever till your parents brought the thing to Meijer. Then, this thing came around and made cameras fun for me, a collaboration of gaming and photography.

It was an insanely busy year for me! I got married, went on a cruise, got promoted at my job, etc.

Before there were was CD-based video games, there were the plastic things known as video game cartridges.

They were clunky. Over time, they got worn down.

But that is how video gaming was, and I love it.

Many of my favorite games were played on game cartridges. Sometimes, though, they didn't work.
